I’m Trent Heart and what a show we have for tonight. All matches tonight will be contested under tag team rules!

Yes and our Main Event will definitely not fail to entertain. Death Wish opponents clash when Dash Blade, Chris Classic, and Erik Michaels take on Supply and Demand and Jose!

But let’s get started with out opening contest, Colton and The Chaos Kid taking on Tristian “Rampage” Artist and “The Eliminator” Zachary.

The camera cuts to the top of the ramp as a combination of Metalingus and Burn in My Light plays. Colton comes out first, walking very slowly, as The Chaos Kid jets out behind him. The Chaos Kid bounces up and down before sprinting down the ramp as Colton follows Chaos. The Chaos Kid slides into the ring and jumps onto the second turnbuckle as Colton climbs up the steel steps and enters the ring. The Chaos Kid backflips off of the second turnbuckle and jumps up and down as they wait for their opponents.

This tag team contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing team number 1, weighing in at a combined 464 pounds, Colton and The Chaos Kid…The Puerto Rican Express!

Here is the team that will be challenging The Sound and Damien Jones this Sunday at Death Wish for the ROG Tag Team Championships. What a match that should be.

I’m definitely pulling for Colton and The Chaos Kid in that match. With the return of Chris Classic a few weeks ago, The Sound and Damien Jones haven’t necessarily been on the same page. Especially after their confrontation last week during the Main Event…Chris Classic seems to have broken up a great team.

Even though they may not be on the same page, they’re still going to work together to retain the titles. They’re no pushovers.

Always by Saliva blasts on the speakers as Zachary and Tristian Artist enter the arena. Zachary and Tristian Artist pose at the top of the ramp and start walking down the ramp. They hand out high-fives to various fans before sliding into the ring. Tristian Artist goes straight at The Chaos Kid, but Ed Richards breaks them up.

And their opponents, weighing in at a combined 491 pounds…Tristian “Rampage” Artist and “The Eliminator” Zachary!

In the past few weeks, The Chaos Kid has been terrorizing these two with sneak attacks. Last weeks he almost killed Tristian Artist with the Cop Killa on the ramp and the week before that he took out Zachary with the Cop Killa on a steel chair…will we see The Chaos Kid do it again?

Playing dirty is always a good thing, but when you put your opponent’s life in jeopardy…that’s just not right. The Chaos Kid is a fantastic wrestler, but he doesn’t need to cripple his opponents.

Ding-ding-ding

Tristian gets off of Chaos and glares at Ed Richards before going back onto the apron. Chaos is down in the center of the ring, as is Zachary. Colton and Tristian start stomping on their aprons an yelling at their partners to get up.

Tristian Artist means business here tonight. Did you see the way he just attacked Chaos? What a mean streak!

That was a cheap shot. Tristian Artist attacked Chaos when he was focused on something else. Completely unfair.

Are you serious? The Chaos Kid has been doing that for weeks to Tristian Artist and Zachary and NOW you’re going to say something about it when The Chaos Kid is the one being beaten!?

They nail the Puerto Rican Death Drop and Chaos returns to the apron. 1…2…kick out!

How did Tristian Artist just kick out!? They executed that move perfectly!

It’s his will to win. Tristian Artist needs this victory to get himself back into the Meltdown ranks.

Colton is on his knees in the ring, arguing with Ed Richards. Ed Richards puts up two fingers and argues back. Colton focuses on Tristian again and lifts him up.

Colton covers Zachary. 1…2…3!

What a match! Tristian Artist and Zachary refused to go down and definitely showed that they deserve to be Tag Title contenders in that match.

Yes, but the Cop Killa striked again and it was basically the signaling of the end in this match. I have to admit, Zachary and Tristian Artist put up a great match against the #1 Contenders and if Colton and The Chaos Kid win the tag titles, they should defend them against this team first.

I completely agree! All 4 men were pushed to their limits in this match and in the end, The Puerto Rican Express walked out the victors.

The camera cuts to the backstage interview room where Dan Jackson is sitting in his interview seat, still wearing a neck brace.

Welcome back to Meltdown. I’m Dan Jackson and I have a very special sit-down interview planned for tonight. Over the last few weeks, there has been a lot of tension growing between the ROG Tag Team Champions, The Sound and Damien Jones, so I decided to have them on my interview show.

The Sound and Damien Jones enter the room and take a seat.

Hello gentlemen. I have some questions for the two of you if that’s fine.

Sure.

Go ahead.

Alright…well the return of Chris Classic a few weeks ago is one of the key reasons that you won the ROG Tag Team Championships, but it also seems to be the reason that you two haven’t been on the same page as of late. What is he doing to cause this?

Well, Dan, I don’t see any problems with him. I’m very happy that he returned, because it’s been weird without him.

What? Sound, you and I won the ROG Tag Team Championships. We’ve been helping each other for the month and a half he was out and then you just completely ditch me for him. You already proved that you would rather have him than me in your corner when you chose him to be your partner last week and guess what. YOU LOST!

We lost, because you decided to get involved in something that wasn’t any of your business. I wanted to team with him again, because he wanted revenge on the men that took him out and that would be Supply and Demand. Everything has to be about you, doesn’t it Damien?

It’s not about that. We won the ROG Tag Team Titles! We should’ve been celebrating. We should’ve been happy! But instead, you see him and completely blow me off. I went home while you and him went out celebrating and you didn’t even give a rats ass. WE are supposed to be a team. WE are the ROG Tag Team Champions. So WE should watch out for each other and not turn our back on the other!

Whoa. I can feel some tension on that subject. Well, as the ROG Tag Team Champions, you have a title defense against The Puerto Rican Express. How do you plan to escape with your titles?

Well, they have successfully defeated most of the opponents in their way and it will be hard, but as long as we can settle out differences, we should escape with the ROG Tag Titles.

Or you can just ask Chris Classic. I’m sure he wouldn’t mind.

Oh my god! Would you just drop it Damien! It’s not my fault that he returned. We hadn’t seen each other in awhile. Get over it.

Whatever.

…Alright. Well, this will be my final question. If you don’t retain the tag titles this Sunday, what’s next for you two?

It all depends. If Damien Jones continues to act the way he is, we’ll probably go our separate ways. He’ll go back to being a nobody like he was before I found him, while I’ll go on to be a Main Eventer alongside Chris Classic.

A nobody? Is that really what you think of me? I was doing just fine and when you “found” me, I just happened to do a bit better. Without you, I would do just fine. I don’t need you. You don’t need me. All you need is Chris Classic to carry you to success.

Chris Classic never carried me to anything. I have proven that I can be a singles and tag team competitor on Meltdown, unlike you.

You know what? For right now, let’s stop this arguing and get focused for our title defense. There is no chance in hell of us retaining if we continue to argue like this. We need to be on the same page come Sunday.

Good, because up next will be Destruction Inc. taking on Spawn and Hybrid of Dark Republic. Plus, Dante Diablo will yet again be escorting Spawn and Hybrid to the ring.

The Undertaker Ministry theme plays as the lights go out and a wall of fire erupts at the top of the ramp. The fire dies down and Nightmare and Black Dagger are standing behind it. Nightmare drops to one knee and points to the sky as Black Dagger starts walking down the ramp. Dagger and Nightmare walk down the ramp and walk up the steel steps. They enter the ring and Dagger walks to the center with Nightmare. Nightmare lifts up his arms and slams them, making fire erupt from the four turnbuckles.

This tag team contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing team number 1, weighing in at a combined 610 pounds, Nightmare and Black Dagger…Destruction Inc!

Both of these men will be going into big matches this Sunday. Black Dagger will be taking on Dante Diablo in a singles match where Spawn and Hybrid are banned from ringside, while Nightmare will take on his nemesis, Edgecutioner, in a Buried Alive match.

Word has it, that Black Dagger requested this match so that he can show Dante Diablo what will happen to him come Death Wish.

The Fight Song by Marilyn Manson plays as red fog covers the arena. Dante Diablo enters the arena, followed by Spawn and Hybrid. Diablo points directly at Black Dagger from the top of the ramp and motions for Spawn and Hybrid to go to the ring. They run down the ramp and slide into the ring as Diablo walks down the ramp. Diablo enters the ring as well.

And their opponents, hailing from the City of Satan, being accompanied by Dante Diablo, Spawn and Hybrid…Dark Republic!

Last week, all three of these men lost. Spawn and Hybrid lost one of the biggest opportunities in their careers and Nightmare defeated Dante Diablo by DQ. They need to get back into the game with a win here tonight.

Ding-ding-ding

Ed Richards calls for the bell as Dagger grabs Diablo by the neck. Dagger lifts Diablo up and hits the Dead End through the announce table. Diablo is out cold as Spawn and Hybrid are working together, trying to get Nightmare off his feet. Nightmare swats both men away repeatedly, but the numbers game is proving too much and Nightmare drops to his knees. Dagger enters the ring and bum rushes Spawn. Spawn falls over as Nightmare gets back to his feet and shoves Hybrid against the ropes. Hybrid rebounds off the ropes and Nightmare hits the Black Hole Slam on Hybrid. Hybrid jumps off the mat, holding his back, and rolls out of the ring. Nightmare exits the ring and grabs a bag of tacks from underneath the ring. Nightmare re-enters the ring and empties the tacks on the ring canvas. Black Dagger throws Spawn over to Nightmare and Nightmare puts Spawn on his shoulder in Powerslam formation. Nightmare puts his head between the legs of Spawn and walks over to the tacks. Nightmare signals for the Tombstone Piledriver on the tacks as the lights go out. The lights turn back on and Black Dagger is knocked out in the ring and Edgecutioner is standing in the ring. Nightmare drops Spawn onto the tacks without much force and Spawn escapes the ring and runs up the ramp. Nightmare turns around and looks into the eyes of Edgecutioner. Edgecutioner runs at Nightmare and hits the Straight to Hell on the tacks before Nightmare can defend himself. Edgecutioner stands up and pulls tacks out of his arm like they were mosquitoes. The lights go out and turn back on and Edgecutioner is gone.

Here are your winners, by count-out, Spawn and Hybrid…Dark Republic!

Can we even consider that a match? That was absolute mayhem.

I agree. We’re left here without a table with two bodies out here, both nearly crippled, and two lifeless bodies in the ring. The only man who seems to have escaped this match with minimum harm done was Spawn…Death Wish just got more interesting.

I agree with that. I can’t wait to see Nightmare retaliate at Death Wish.

Hello everybody. As everyone knows, the next ROG PPV, Death Wish, is this Sunday. At this PPV, a new talent will be arriving and will be signing a contract to whichever show he chooses. He’s a tremendous athlete as we’ve seen in other federations that he’s wrestled in and he doesn’t talk much…now as we all know, he’s going to sign with Meltdown, so get ready to see a new face next week!

The crowd cheers loudly at the announcement.

Now, let’s run down the Meltdown portion of Death Wish. After what we just saw in the ring, Black Dagger and Dante Diablo still have lots of bad blood. They’ll be able to settle this at Death Wish when they face off. But, Dante Diablo will be on his own as Spawn and Hybrid are banned from ringside and if they happen to show up after a referee “mishap” they’ll be fired on the spot!

A graphic of Black Dagger vs. Dante Diablo is shown on the big screen.

Also at Death Wish, the hot new tag team of Colton and The Chaos Kid will be cashing in the opportunity that they earned last week to fight for the ROG Tag Team Championships when they take on The Sound and Damien Jones. As everyone knows, The Sound and Damien Jones haven’t been the best of friends in the recent weeks, but can they work together to overcome the odds?

A graphic of Colton and The Chaos Kid vs. The Sound and Damien Jones is shown on the big screen, followed by a video package of Colton and The Chaos Kid earning their spot and The Sound and Damien Jones’s title victory.

Another match that will take place is one of my personal favorites that I made earlier today. The returning Chris Classic will be taking on Jamarius Jackson! They’ve been feuding for awhile now and Chris Classic returned with an impact when he cost Ricky Reynolds and Jamarius Jackson the ROG Tag Team Championships. Jamarius Jackson didn’t take well to this and now they will have a chance to settle their differences at Death Wish.

A graphic of Jamarius Jackson vs. Chris Classic appears on the big screen, followed by a video clip showing Chris Classic getting injured and then his triumphant return to ROG.

What a match that should be, but that’s not all! Jose will be defending his newly won X-Rated Championship against Dash Blade in a match that’s sure to be nothing short of amazing.

A graphic presents itself on the big screen with the words X-Rated Championship spread across the top of the graphic.

Another match that is sure to get violent and intense is the Buried Alive Match between Nightmare and Edgecutioner. We just saw Edgecutioner attack Nightmare and Nightmare is sure to be pissed right now, so Edgecutioner should expect hell at Death Wish. However, Nightmare will definitely defeat Warzone’s Edgecutioner.

A video package plays off Edgecutioner’s and Nightmare’s feud over the past few months including highlights from their Hardcore Match at High Stakes and their Hell in a Cell match at Apocalypse. A graphic then shows up on the big screen, featuring Nightmare, Edgecutioner, and a coffin and a shovel in the background with the words BURIED ALIVE MATCH spread across the top of the graphic.

And finally, the Meltdown Main Event for the evening. It will be Ricky Reynolds defending the ROG World Heavyweight Championship against the former World Heavyweight Champion, Erik Michaels!

A video plays of Ricky Reynolds winning the ROH WHC at High Stakes and then another video featuring Erik Michaels earning his rematch. A graphic then shows up on the big screen with Erik Michaels, Ricky Reynolds, and the World Heavyweight title belt in between them. The words World Heavyweight Championship are seen at the top of the graphic.

So there you have it. The 5 matches that Meltdown has to present as well as the 1 inter-promotional match that we have to present against Warzone. We hope that you will tune in to watch Death Wish. Now get ready for your Main Event for the evening.

What a card we have planned for Death Wish. But now, it’s time for the Main Event and this match is centered on Death Wish matches.

It will be Chris Classic, Erik Michaels, and Dash Blade teaming up to take on Supply and Demand and Jose in a 6-man tag match and what a match it should be!

Classical music plays as Chris Classic enters the arena. Chris Classic enters the arena and walks down the ramp slowly as he walks to the beat of the Classical Music. Chris Classic climbs up the steel steps and enters the ring.

This 6-man tag team match is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, hailing from the Kayfabe era and weighing in at 252 pounds…Chris Classic!

He will be taking on Jamarius Jackson in a match that was announced earlier today for Death Wish.

They have a very strong feud as well…it should be a good match.

And their tag team partner, hailing from Miami, Florida and weighing in at a 213 pounds…Erik Michaels!

He has to be stoked for his ROG World Heavyweight Championship match at Death Wish.

I know I would be. But I would also be getting ready for the match. He has to wrestle in a match with so much star power…he could get hurt and not enter his match 100%.

Metalingus plays on the speakers as Jose enters the arena. Jose jumps up and down at the top of the ramp before running down the ramp and sliding into the ring. Jose jumps onto the second turnbuckle and poses for the crowd. Jose jumps off the turnbuckle and locks eyes with Dash Blade.

And their opponents, introducing first, hailing from Greenwich, Connecticut and weighing in at 215 pounds, he is your X-Rated Champion…Jose!

He will have to defend the X-Rated Championship that he just recently won against the man that he won it from this Sunday at Death Wish.

Jose and Dash Blade are so evenly matched when it comes down to pure wrestling ability…you have to wonder who’s going to walk out of the match with the championship.

Push it By Rick Ross blasts through the arena as Ricky Reynolds and Jamarius Jackson enter the arena. Ricky Reynolds hoists the ROG World Heavyweight Championship on his shoulder as he walks down the ramp with Jamarius Jackson following him. Ricky Reynolds slides into the ring as Jamarius Jackson walks up the steel steps and enters the ring. They go to their corner, where Jose is waiting, and start talking.

And his tag team partners, weighing in at a combined 460 pounds, Ricky Reynolds and Jamarius Jackson…Supply and Demand!

The former ROG Tag Team Champions look determined here tonight. They defeated The Sound and Chris Classic last week, so they’re coming into this match with some momentum on their side.

Yes, but you forget that they also lost the ROG Tag Team Championships two weeks ago against The Sound and Damien Jones! I think that kinda balances out the victory, don’t you think?

Even though there are teams, it’s still every man for himself. Remember that, Percy.

Yet another great contest here on Monday Night Meltdown! This match truly tore the house down and the team of Erik Michaels, Dash Blade, and Chris Classic winning was just icing on the cake.

What are you talking about!? Jose took out his own teammate in that crazy stunt. As much as I may respect him, it was his fault that his team didn’t walk away with the victory here tonight.

Jose also took out two of his opponents and himself, so I think that everything kinda…evened out in the end.

Whatever you say. All I know is that everything will be different at “Death Wish.” Mark my words on that.

Mhm…sure, Trent. Speaking of “Death Wish,” please don’t miss out on what is sure to be one of the craziest ROG PPVs of the year. Tune in this Sunday to see who will walk away as with the Meltdown titles as well as to see who will be BURIED ALIVE!

Jose gets up on the outside and starts walking up the ramp as Erik Michaels celebrates in the ring. Jamarius Jackson lies in the ring, motionless as Dash Blade and Chris Classic enter the ring and celebrate as well, despite being slightly injured. Ricky Reynolds starts to get up and glares at the three men in the ring before being handed the ROG World Heavyweight Title belt and walking up the ramp.

I can’t wait for “Death Wish.” I can’t believe it’s already here!

Me neither, Trent, me neither. Anyways, please join us here next week, same time, same place for the results and fallout of “Death Wish.” Until next week, this is Percy Chapman and Trent Heart. Goodnight everyone.
